Abstract: A carrier (10; 10') for a series of bottles (2) having an upwardly conically converging neck (3) and an upper end (7) showing an outer thread for a screw cap (8), or a capsule fastened to an upper bottle collar. The carrier comprises initially a substantially flat sheet (1; 1') made of corrugated cardboard having five longitudinal sections, namely a central section (11; 11'), to the longitudinal edges of which connect two intermediate sections (12; 12' and 13; 13'), to which latter in their turn connect two outer sections (14; 14' and 15; 15'). The sections are separated from each other by grooves (17) and have openings (20; 20'; 21; 21', 22; 22'), which will be aligned, when the sheet is folded to a closed form of profile, and which openings are designed to be penetrated by the neck (3) and the cap (8) of the bottles (2). According to the invention, said sheet and said carrier, respectively, have in the central section (11; 11') foldable flaps (27; 27'; 27'') and in the intermediate sections (12; 12'; 13; 13') support flaps (24; 24'; 24''). The flaps are pressed against the cap (8) of the bottles (2) or against any flange (4) or an outer section (14; 14') and the neck (3) to counteract relative movements between the bottles and the carrier respectively for mutual coordination of the latter. The support flaps support and lock the flaps in the position of use.

Abstract: The present invention provides a bus transceiver incorporating a high speed, binary transfer mode for the half-duplex transfer of data signals with a ternary control transfer mode having a full duplex dominant logic transmission scheme for the full duplex transfert of control signals. In one embodiment of the present invention, the above-noted transfer modes are implemented in a bus architecture which includes at least a first communications node coupled to a second communications node via a twisted pair, serial bus. Each node comprises first transceiver and second transceivers having a differential driver for driving on the bus signal states comprising first and second signal states having equal current amplitudes opposite in sign and a third signal state having approximately a zero current amplitude, a high speed binary receiver for receiving high speed data signals during data transfer phases and a ternary receiver for receiving control signals during control transfer phases. The ternary receiver comprises two binary receivers for detecting resultant current amplitudes created on the bus during simultaneous driving of control signals by the nodes during the control transfer phases and logic means for combining the resultant current amplitudes on the bus with the signal states driven by the local transceiver to output reconstructed control signals representing the control signals driven on the bus by the corresponding transceiver. Furthermore, both transceivers further include a preemptive signaling receiver for the detection of preemptive control messages which act to terminate the data transfer phases upon receipt of the message so that higher priority control transfers may take place.

Abstract: This invention relates to a gene encoding a polypeptide having pre-B cell growth-supporting ability, and an adhesion molecule of the polypeptide consisting of 318 amino acid residues having pre-B cell growth-supporting ability, or a part of it. Said adhesion molecule is produced by preparing transformants such as microorganism or cells by transforming a host cell with a vector containing said gene and culturing said transformants. The above gene encodes the novel adhesion molecule enhancing the pre-B cell growth-supporting ability on the bone marrow cell and the synovial cell derived from patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and multiple myeloma (MM). The homogeneous and purified adhesion molecule having pre-B cell growth-supporting ability can be produced in large quantities, and therefore it is possible to identify multiple myeloma (MM) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and also prepare reagents for the clinical diagnosis thereof. <IMAGE>

Abstract: This invention is a surgical device. In particular, it is a catheter suitable for accessing a tissue target within the body, typically a target which is accessible through the vascular system. Central to the invention is the use of a stiffener ribbon, typically metallic, wound within the catheter body in such a way as to create a catheter having controllable stiffness. The stiffener ribbon is adhesively bonded to a flexible outer tubing member so to produce a thin wall catheter section which is exceptionally flexible but highly kink resistant. The catheter sections made according to this invention may be used in conjunction with other catheter sections either using the concepts shown herein or made in other ways. Because of the effective strength and ability to retain a generally kink-free form, these catheters may be effectively used in sizes which are quite fine, e.g., 0.015'' to 0.020'' in diameter, and usable within typical vascular catheters. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A system and method which mixes images, such as an advertisement, with a video stream of action occurring within a relatively unchanging space, such as a playing field, is disclosed. The system utilizes a model of the background space to change the video stream so as to include the image at some location within the background space. It includes a video frame grabber and an image implantation system. The frame grabber grabs a single frame of the video signal at one time. The image implantation system typically implants the grabbed image into the frame onto a predefined portion of a preselected one of the surfaces of the background space if the portion is shown in the frame. To determine the location of the portion to have implantation, the image implantation system includes a unit for receiving a) a flat model of the fixed surfaces and b) an image mask indicating the portion of the flat model onto which the image is to be mixed. Via the model, the image implantation system identifies if and where the portion is shown in the frame.

Abstract: A class of soluble polymers having a rigid rod backbone, which when used to cast films, undergo a self-orientation process whereby the polymer backbone becomes more or less aligned parallel to the film surface. This in-plane orientation results in a film that displays negative birefringence. The degree of in-plane orientation and thus, the magnitude of the negative birefringence is controlled by varying the backbone linearity and rigidity of the class of polymers which includes polyesters, polyamides, poly(amide-imides) and poly(ester-imides) through selection of substituents in the polymer backbone chain. By increasing the polymer backbone linearity and rigidity, the degree of in-plane orientation and associated negative birefringence can be increased, and that conversely, by decreasing the polymer backbone linearity and rigidity, the negative birefringence can be decreased.

Abstract: A series of fittings is provided for joining I or U-beams of composite materials for bearing structures in form of frames, lattice structures etc. Each joint between adjacent beams is formed by particular fittings of a U-shaped profile in cross section. The back of the U is of a width corresponding to the inner width between the flanges of the I or the U-beams. The flanges of these fittings present almost the same outer width as the inner width of the flanges of the I or the U-beams. When seen in the longitudinal direction, the particular fitting of each beam joint is formed by two members together forming the same angle as the adjacent beams of the beam joint. The resulting joining of structures is very fast compared to conventional joining of structures, and it presents nevertheless a high strength.
